Bill and Hazel Nevis in Europe: October 1957 NYC departure

Bill and Hazel set sail on a tour of Europe on the SS Constitution (on their "Sunlane cruise" from New York City to Naples via the Azores, Lisbon and Spain, attracting high-end clientele), departing New York Harbor in October 1957. It is the same ship featured in the 1957 movie An Affair to Remember starring Cary Grant and Deborah Kerr and in a few episodes of the sitcom I Love Lucy from early 1956.
